I've Got a Question - You've Got an Answer

Here in America one of the biggest holiday weekends of the year is almost upon us - the Fourth of July. Just the name alone conjures up the thought of BBQs, parades, fireworks, and camp-outs. Chances are good that most people have plans of one sort or another so today's question is:

Probably the same way I spend everyday, on the computer blogging :).Seriously, it's been so hot and dry here for months that fireworks are just plain out of the question, the city is banning them, now the weather has cooled down some into the low 90's and it's mostly overcast and periodic sprinkles.........staying indoors.The 4th of July is like any other day, I celebrate my freedom every single day.

I kind of had plans to take a trip up to a mall then going to TGI Fridays for lunch/dinner. Totally forgot about the holiday when I made the plans and have no clue whether or not they are still gonna happen.

Right now, darned if I know what is on the agenda for tomorrow -if anything! Mandy has been thinking about going over to Penn State for their big Fireworks event but hasn't said anything definite as yet about that. Plus, a cousin of mine is here now till Sunday (from Birmingham, ALA) but the main reason she and her husband are here -to have a Memorial Service on Saturday for her Mom who passed away back in February. I'm waiting to hear from her -hopefully soon -see if they want to come here for supper today or maybe do something tomorrow, depending on how many of her immediate family is arriving and when. I hate waiting, not knowing what others want to do, etc. Oh well. It's not THAT big an issue and I can be flexible. Keep telling myself that anyway!Have a Great 4th! And if you're in central Penna, trust me the 4th of July celebration at State College/University Park/Penn State is one of the biggest and best in the country, so come on out and join the fun there!

Well, Let's see I was invited to go camping with the MIL... not gonna do that. I was invited by the husband to go racing for 2 days spending the night with the dirt and no showers... not gonna do that.

But, I am gonna do this. Stay at home, watch my grand-daughter for 2 nights while her mom and jack go camping. I will blog, clean house?? play with baby b. Figure out what things I need for september and probably go to my Parent's house sometime during the weekend. I am excited just to have 3 days off...
